What is Project Implementation?
• Project implementation is the segment wherein visions and plans come to be a reality.
• The implementation degree of the project cycle is in many approaches the most
critical, as it’s miles in the course of this stage that planned advantages are delivered.
• All different stages within the cycle are therefore essentially supportive of this
implementation stage.
• To deliver the results, achieve the purpose(s) and contribute effectively to the
overall objective of the project;
• Update the stakeholder analysis to ensure that all the needful stakeholders
(primary and secondary) are invited
• Monitor and review the progress that the project is making towards achieving its
objectives.
• Feed the learning from monitoring and reviewing returned into the project design.
• Return to the log frame and make adjustments or upgrades which is appropriate.
Project Implementation Plan
• The motive of the project implementation plan is to provide stakeholders with the
self-belief that accomplishment of a modern-day challenge has been properly
considered and to list the tasks, activities, and processes worried in producing
deliverables.
Steps for Project Implementation:
• A tracking sheet will provide you with a quick at-a-glance replacement of where
implementation plan is and what moves are complete, in development, or late.
• This allows us to quickly address any issues to get the project back on track.
• We recommend imposing a traffic mild manner via your tracking sheet for ease of
use:
• While there are many existing project management methodologies you could
implement, different mission control methodologies, combining the right amount
of documentation, communication, governance, and control, is one of the highly
used methods to complete projects on time and budget whilst creating effective
outcomes even in challenging environments.
g) Schedule and undertake a review in six months
• Through the evaluation process, it’s critical to take a look at what labored and
what didn’t to identify areas for improvement.
• It is also important to take a look at the setbacks you encountered along the way
and how they may have potentially been avoided or reduced to take this
understanding into your subsequent set of implementation activities.
• This review will also help you to plan the activities better next time.
Phases of Project Implementation:
• Project Implementation involves the following phases:
• Project activation phase, and
• Project operation phase
1. Project activation phase
• This is the phase where arrangements are made for the project implementation
i.e making arrangements to start the project.
• Project activation phase involves the coordination and allocation of resources to
make the project operational.
2. Project operation phase:
• From the name itself, this phase is the implementation phase of the project.
• It is the practical management phase of a project.
• Here, project inputs are transformed into outputs to achieve immediate
objectives.
Approaches to Project Implementation:
a) Top-down Approach
• Implementation mainly is done by agencies from outside the community with limited
involvement by the beneficiaries.
b) Bottom-up Approach
• This is regularly used alongside the Program Evaluation and Review Technique
(PERT).
• This approach involves detecting the longest path (sequence of duties) from the start to
the end of a project and defining the critical responsibilities.
• Critical are tasks that impact the cut-off dates of the entire project and require closer
attention and thorough control.
• Critical Path approach is used for complex projects where delivery terms and deadlines
are vital, in such regions as construction, defense, software development, and others.
c) Project Evaluation and Review Techniques (PERT)
• Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is one in every of the broadly
used approaches in diverse areas.
• It involves complicated and specific planning and visual tracking of labor effects
on PERT charts.
• Its core element is the evaluation of tasks performed within the project.
• Originally, this approach was developed by using the USA Navy for the duration
of the Cold War to boom the performance of labor on new technologies.
• This method suits exceptionally for large and long-time period initiatives with
non-ordinary obligations and tough requirements.
